I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Can we get some Dervishes to whirl? I mean, if they wear the black, of course.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Yes!

I am awake with a headache that will not respond to Advil, on the night before a 6 am departure for kiddoes science day complete with rockets. Which I will bet folding money I am now going to miss.

I'm awake too Liese. I had a fever earlier and slept most of the afternoon. It broke around 9:30pm and I've been wide awake ever since. We have a bunch of snow, with more coming down. I wish they would just call it as a snow day. The high tomorrow is expected to be 15 with a wind chill of zero. The roads are going to be icky.

In general, you shouldn't wear black to a wedding
Heh. I'm looking for a black dress to wear as my wedding dress. With a colourful shawl, is my current thinking. Unless another colour dress particularly strikes me. I think I mostly want to annoy my grandmother (who thinks I should be wearing white. At a civil partnership blessing. When I've been living with The Girl for four years).

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Generally I go with black for funerals and no white for wedding guests. But at my mom's funeral I wore an ivory sweater set because Mom had always disliked me wearing black.

I wore gray/black at our wedding - [link]
But would avoid wearing black to anyone else's wedding. That wedding dress is actually my go-to funeral dress now. Irish people go to a lot of funerals.

I have been to very few funerals. I don't remember what I wore to the last one, but I do remember that CJ was just over a year old. He got cranky so we went out to the lobby (not sure of the right term) where he got to run off some energy. And then he found a bank of light switches that were down low, the perfect height for him to play with. He flipped off the lights before I got to him and I wasn't sure which switches he flipped, so there was a bit of a light show while I tried to put things to rights.
Oh, and I'm awake. Plows cleared the road and the shopping center parking lot at 3:30 this morning. Tons of scrapping and then pushing the pile into a bigger pile somehow made even more noise than the scrapping.

Jars, that's a lovely wedding outfit!

Indeed. I'm in Ireland a lot for cousins'/other relatives' funerals. I need to try to go more to see people on happier occasions.
